Changing the Dash


I have here a series of pictures from the frame swap we just did on Tom's truck. It has been a long 2 weeks since we started this project. What was supposed to be a simple swap turned into a much more complicated process because we had to locate some parts that were broken or missing from the new frame. We have had fun but it was exhausting. Long nights and very early mornings. We had to get new driver's side spring shackles among a few other various things. While we had it torn apart we also swapped the dash as the old one was not set up for A/C. The new one is which also meat we had to change the heater box and fabricate a new hole in the fire wall for the new one. The dash swap was my job, but when it came to wiring all of it I was lost. That became Tom's job. There isn't much he doesn't know about 70 model Ford trucks. Any questions can be left in the comments sections of this blog. Please feel free to ask questions and offer any advise you feel may be useful. We are always open to suggestions.
